Obama doesn’t directly state that Oklahoma’s execution of Clayton Lockett was racist, but he implies it.

Remember that is the monster that Barack Hussein Obama is empathizing with.

"The men beat her and used duct tape to bind her hands and cover her mouth.

"Neiman was forced to watch as Lockett’s accomplice, Shawn Mathis, spent 20 minutes digging a shallow grave in a ditch beside the road. Her friends saw Neiman standing in the ditch and heard a single shot.

"Lockett returned to the truck because the gun had jammed. He later said he could hear Neiman pleading, “Oh God, please, please” as he fixed the shotgun.

"The men could be heard “laughing about how tough Stephanie was” before Lockett shot Neiman a second time.

"“He ordered Mathis to bury her, despite the fact that Mathis informed him Stephanie was still alive.”

The high points of her national career are negative; terminated from Watergate after unethical behavior, a failure on government health care as First Lady, an Iraq War vote that she spent five years lying about and the abandonment of Americans in Benghazi as Secretary of State.

In the Senate, she was for a ban on flag burning, Cap and Trade, nuclear power, for Israel, for Palestine, for abortion, against abortion, for harsh criminal penalties, against harsh criminal penalties, for No Child Left Behind, against No Child Left Behind, for gay marriage, against gay marriage, for medical marijuana and against medical marijuana.

And she has tried to make up for it with childish lies like claiming to have come under sniper fire in Bosnia, claiming to have negotiated open borders for refugees in Kosovo and claiming to have been instrumental in the Irish peace process.

The old story was that the Ground Zero Mosque had nothing to do with the location. It just happened to be there to provide Muslims with a mosque.

But that was a blatant lie because there was no Muslim community in the area worth mentioning. The area around Ground Zero is barely residential and mainly caters to the business community. The Muslims who attended the mosque were mostly itinerant food service vendors and a few Wall Street types.

There was nothing there requiring a major mosque, certainly not one that would operate outside business hours.

Now the Ground Zero Mosque is becoming a Museum of Islam. There’s certainly no local need for such a thing. It’s a blatant exploitation of the location.

The original excuse that the mosque was intended for Muslims and just happened to be near Ground Zero has been shot to hell. A museum can be built anywhere. It doesn’t have to be there. It’s there to exploit September 11.

You don’t tug on Superman’s cape, spit into the wind or question John Kerry’s patriotism. Also you don’t question his support for Israel.

No matter how often he calls American soldiers dog-killing, genital-shocking bloodthirsty murderers who are worse than Genghis Khan… you do not question John Kerry’s patriotism.

And no matter how often Kerry bashes Israel, calls it an Apartheid state, aids Code Pink’s trip to support Hamas or suggests a Third Intifada is on the way… don’t you dare question his support for Israel.

Had the Democrats been able to let go of their obsession with Bush, they would have been able to head off the crisis in Ukraine. Instead they assumed that their relationship with Putin was going well, not because it was, but because the only reason it had ever been bad was because of George W. Bush.

The Russian government understood this dynamic and exploited it. It knew that Hillary didn’t come bearing a Reset Button because she wanted to improve relations with Russia. Instead she needed a tangible demonstration of how she was reversing Bush’s foreign policy failures to prep for her own presidential campaign.

And the Russians played along. They understood that to the Democrats they were only counters in a domestic political campaign and that Washington, D.C. had become a thoroughly unserious place.

Former Chicago Comptroller Amer Ahmad has been taken into custody in Pakistan, where he apparently fled ahead of his sentencing in a federal fraud case in Ohio.

Ahmad, who served as Ohio’s deputy treasurer and chief investment official, pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy to commit bribery, wire fraud and money laundering. He was hired in Chicago by Mayor Rahm Emanuel after the crimes in Ohio were committed. Mayor Emanuel has said that he knew nothing about the infractions and that nothing criminal was done in Chicago.

Asked about his former aide’s arrest Wednesday, Mayor Rahm Emanuel said he has been too busy with other issues to spend much time thinking about it.

De Blasio said Friday that he was unaware of any investigation. He added that nobody in his campaign had been questioned.

“Literally, I’ve told you all I know. I’m not familiar with the allegations so I can’t comment,” de Blasio told reporters.

In early April, after Quinn refused to support the proposed carriage ban, NYCLASS founder Steve Nislick, and board member Wendy Neu, gave $200,000 each to New York City is Not for Sale, the political action committee formed by Levenson to carry out the Anybody But Quinn campaign of TV ads, robocalls and mailings — which began that month — attacking her.

And in June, two of de Blasio’s top financial supporters gave $225,000 to NYCLASS, records show.

One of those supporters was de Blasio’s cousin, Wilhelm, who was then head of the union group UNITE HERE!, which wrote a check for $175,000 to NYCLASS — the biggest contribution NYCLASS had ever received. The other was Jay Eisenhoffer, an attorney.

Wilhelm and Eisenhoffer also acted as “intermediaries” for de Blasio’s mayoral campaign, collecting $165,000 in contributions for him, records show.

These examples don’t show that Global Warming critics, many of whom are scientists, don’t understand science.

They show that Gina McCarthy doesn’t understand science.

If a scientist said, “You must accept my theory, even though it’s completely unrelated to anything involving medicine because I come from Harvard University”, he would be rightly laughed out of every forum there is.

But that’s exactly what Gina McCarthy is claiming. Worse, she’s echoing many anti-science liberals who insist that science isn’t a set of hypothesis that have to be tested and retested against new evidence, but that it’s an undifferentiated mass that you have to accept whole.

A group representing Muslim physicians has defied the Health Ministry and Malaysian Medical Association on the hudud issue, saying that its members will amputate limbs “in the most humane manner possible”.

Fauzi said Muslim physicians are subservient to the higher ideals of syariah law to protect the general public.

On the Hippocratic Oath where physicians are expected to “do no harm” (primum non nocere), he said Muslim doctors are not doing any harm to a criminal who has transgressed the boundaries of social justice and has to undergo a punishment prescribed by Islamic law.

“These crimes (theft, fornication, adultery, alcohol consumption and apostasy) which threaten the social and moral order are seen as transgressing the limits set by Allah and thus have punishments mandated in the Quran.”

"The ethics and the law are manmade, whereas the Islamic ruling is from Allah. As a Muslim doctor, I am a Muslim first. At the moment, the fact that syaria’ law has not been fully implemented has made it compulsory on me to make it happen…"

Pepsi plays an interesting role in the Egyptian economy. Pepsi bought into the Egyptian Bottling Company which was a state owned enterprise. It did so together with the Saudis. Pepsi is now politically controversial and ubiquitous in Egypt.

So Pepsi has come under various attacks over the years, such as claiming that it’s made out of pig intestines or that a penny from each can is given to Israel.

The story becomes more complicated because Egypt, like most of the Muslim world, is an oligarchy and its economy is dominated by the Egyptian military and the Muslim Brotherhood, both of whom control a variety of civilian companies. A political struggle in Egypt is also economic. Imagine if Tropicana was aligned with the GOP and Minute Maid with the Democrats.

Under Libya’s monarchy and Muammar Gaddafi’s regime, schools and universities in Libya had always been co-ed. However, in Derna, located in eastern Libya, male and female students are about to be separated for the first time. A local militia is building a wall in the middle of the university campus in order to segregate them.

“The militias then offered the university administration a deal: they would provide security on campus in exchange for the introduction of an “Islamic” dress code for female students and the construction of a wall to separate men and women. The university’s president, as well as Derna’s local council, accepted this proposal.”

Newspaper print advertising revenues of just $17.3 billion in 2013 fell to the lowest level of print advertising since the NAA started tracking industry data in 1950.

Newspaper print advertising revenues decreased more than 50% in just the last five years, from $37.6 billion in 2008 to only $17.3 billion last year; and by almost 70% over the last decade, from $56.9 billion in 2003.

In an article today about Abbas’ statement condemning the Holocaust, Jerusalem bureau chief Jodi Rudoren writes: “Mr. Abbas has been vilified as a Holocaust denier because in his doctoral dissertation, published as a book in 1983, he challenged the number of Jewish victims and argued that Zionists had collaborated with Nazis to propel more people to what would become Israel.”

Abbas wrote, “Many scholars have debated the figure of six million and reached stunning conclusions — fixing the number of Jewish victims at only a few hundred thousand.”

Abbas also blamed the Zionists for making the Nazis do it. “The Zionist movement led a broad campaign of incitement against the Jews living under Nazi rule to arouse the government’s hatred of them, to fuel vengeance against them and to expand the mass extermination”

There is no nice path forward. There is no magic candidate around, or possible, that can fix things who won't require more conflict. Our situation is one that will either become a Leftist Tyranny or will demand civil strife and drive the Leftists out or underground. If you think smart people can find some other alternative you are choosing to be the weak link in the chain and you put the rest of us at risk. You have no right to throw the rest of us away simply because you want to believe in a fantasy.

The Left will come after you and the other nice people just as they will persecute anyone they see as a threat. The Left will lie about their enemy and nice people on our side will stand aside and watch the target destroyed simply because the target may/may not be in violation of some Mayberry Code of Conduct. You can just as easily be isolated, slandered, and destroyed. The facts won't protect you. Only group resistance will save you.

You must choose fighters and accept the fight so that one day we can return to Mayberry Rules. Stop choosing grey men who seem comfortable, but fail to change the system. The Left is brittle and a little mass resistance will go a long way. But, don't fool yourself, without active resistance there will be no change. This habit of retreating from The Left will ruin us all, you included. Putting off this fight only increases the numbers of us that must fight and the destruction from that fight.

One thing that increased the number of Jewish survivors during the Final Solution was armed Jewish resistance...

Only a small percentage of Jewish fighters survived any of these revolts, but by killing Nazis and depleting Nazi resources, the fighters saved lives elsewhere. All of them died with honor. The Warsaw revolt in particular was crucial in changing Western minds so that Jews were not seen merely as passive victims, but as part of the Allied fighting forces, and thus entitled to a share in the post-war settlement. There is a direct line from the Warsaw Uprising to the establishment of the State of Israel...

Especially in Eastern Europe, Jewish armed resistance was impeded was the lack of arms. There was little gun culture among the Jews, except in some Zionist self-defense training groups in which some young people (such as Abba Kovner) had participated. The pre-Nazi governments were often hostile to civilian gun ownership in general. After Nazi conquest, many Jews and others foolishly complied with Nazi orders to surrender all arms. If pre-war Eastern Europe Jews had been as well armed as American civilians during the the 1940s (about one gun per three persons), then Jewish resistance to the Holocaust very likely would have saved even more lives...

Sec of State Kerry has been in the same chapter of my book for years, as is Jane Fonda. My book of traitors isn't very big, and it isn't easy to get a mention there, but MrKerry is well on his way to claiming a chapter of his own. We, the USA, promised Israel that we would help defend them and keep them safe from all attempts to destroy their country and their way of life. MrKerry's private thoughts on what he wants Israel to do or what it has become are no less a betrayal and more the thinking of an anti-Semitic, pro-Islam traitor to America's promises.

The weird and wacky Mayor of our largest city is a real pip, doesn't seem too bright, and will probably not last out his elected term of office. Not that it would be a bad thing, but it probably won't be a good thing either, considering the caliber of his opposition in the last election. Good Luck there, Gotham dwellers.

There is no way to kill a healthy human that isn't "cruel". The latest execution of an evil-doer was a one-off, he's still dead, and if it wasn't instantaneous, well...it sucks to be him. Good riddance to one more bad guy. There are some of us who believe that the murderer should be killed the same way he killed his victims. Justice should be as cruel, as tortured, as cold-blooded as the one being served his or her due. .
